October 29, 1989

General Motors Corp. will not produce the next generation of Chevrolet Camaros and Pontiac Firebirds at its Los Angeles plant and likely will shift the production of those models to a Canadian plant, according to a company official. But GM said it will study the possibility of converting the suburban Van Nuys facility to a ``flex plant,`` which would have the ability to make several models and respond to market changes, said Dee Allen, a spokesman for the Chevrolet-Pontiac-Canada Group, which oversees the Van Nuys plant.
